One of my favourite thing ever on the internet got stamped on by the Seuss estate way back when but seems to be still alive and kicking

Musings on the byways of popular culture

It really is very well done. If a trifle grating after a while; I only have Green Eggs and Ham left on the ipod.
Not directly linked to the original post but it made me think of the Cat in the Hat’s debut for Fulchester Rovers in Viz’s Billy the Fish strip… “Rocks and Socks and Foxes Cocks”. I think Dr. Seuss would have appreciated the effort they made to retain the core values of his original work.
As a younger man, I used to alternate between Susanne Vega and Nick Cave in terms of which of them reminded me more of the Cat in the Hat from the books. Having seen Punk Britannia on BBC4, it is now no contest as the grown-up Nicky Tesco of the Members was clearly born to play “The Cat”, in the aforementioned “Hat”, and with very little call for prosthetics at all. (Wish I could attach a suitable image to back this opinion up…)
Amazeballs.
Cheers for posting these. My kids (and me) are going to love listening to them
Made me think of this, going in the other direction: http://www.amazon.co.uk/Man-Gave-Names-All-Animals/dp/1402768583/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1435824924&sr=1-1&keywords=man+gave+names+to+all+the+animals
